Role of imaging for diagnosis and management of aortic valve papillary fibroelastoma and cardiac amyloid light chain amyloidosis: a case report.

Papillary fibroelastoma and cardiac amyloidosis are rare and most likely unrelated entities. Concomitant presentation of both conditions in the same patient presents a unique therapeutic challenge. By allowing cardiac function to be monitored during chemotherapy, speckle-tracking echocardiography can prove instrumental in determining the optimal timing of surgical intervention.
